Chevrolet SSR
If you didn’t know, the SSR in the car’s name stood for Super Sport Roadster. Funny, right? But let’s go back to being serious again and see why the Chevrolet SSR was one of the worst cars ever created.
While it was made to rival models such as Ford Thunderbird and Dodge Charger, the Chevy just didn’t have what it takes to get the public interested. It was made from 2003 to 2006, had a 5.3 liter V8 engine with 300 horsepower and the appearance of a failed experiment between pickup truck and convertible car.

Chevy SSR is a collector’s car…..such as cool idea and design with plenty of power. Great roadster with plenty of room to take along to sports games.
You left out the Chevy Vega.
You should have included the Chevette by Chevrolet
How did the Yugo not make this list?
The Pontiac Aztec was ahead of its time. Plenty of us loved it!!!! (Maybe because we didn’t want the same car everyone else had)
The only reason I got rid of mine was because I couldn’t fit a family of six in it when my fourth child was on his way.
The Pinto? Fast? Not mine. I could probably have walked as fast after waiting for it to creep through the gears and get up to speed.Then, as you mentioned, the fire factor. I got rear ended while taking a corner and took the hit right where the gas tank was. When I took my car in for repair I was told that if the dent had been 1/4″ deeper, I would have blown sky high. Not long after, the problem became public knowledge and I got rid of my Pinto!!
There were some horrible cars on the UK Market in the 60’s. The Renault Dauphin, which rusted in front of your eyes. The Lada boxes. The FSR import.and anything from the Dagenham works
All of the new Lexus line of cars and suvs are major ugly! The front end of these cars are horrendous. This proves that Japanese manufacturers are not good at designing or creating any product. This country succeeds on copying American products then mass producing them cheaper.
I had the ford pinto and of course it was broke down all the time.
